Whats with this Bill Shaine listing?
Is the caseback a bit strange - or is it just me?

more than strange - no "all black" dials or beaded bezels were produced in 1965; but the engraving/stamping on the caseback looks incorrect too - hands are clearly incorrect for that dial, though correct for 1965.
"put together" would be a friendly description; "near mint" ...... :wowzers

but it will sell; $3k+

Coming from Bill it is a very very short description !
As he says : " the pictures will tell the rest of the story" :uplaugh: :uplaugh:
He would write " all works... together" as the case is good, the dial is good too, the bezel is an early one... but they have been associated or "put together" in a combination that Breitling never issued .
